Kingdom Chapter 780 Revealed: What will happen?
According to information leaked on Reddit, we will discover more about Ri Boku’s true motives. With Ri Shin, not Akou, revealed to be Ri Boku’s main target. This makes sense, because based on their history, Ri Boku foresaw that Ri Shin would become one of the most dangerous and unpredictable figures in the war.

Summary of Kingdom Chapter 779
While waiting Kingdom Chapter 780, in the previous Chapter, we saw the Qin army celebrate their victory over Zhao’s forces, as Shin’s remarkable exploits propelled him to the rank of general. And as the war continues, we see Ousen directing his army toward Khutan (a city in the central state of Zhao).
However, Zhao also made some moves. Toujou, the ruler of Zhao, decided to imprison Riboku on charges of treason. But Riboku remained as calm and resolute as ever, asserting that Toujou’s authoritarian rule had weakened the state of Zhao, leaving it vulnerable to invasion by the Qin army.
Further clues about the Qin army’s plan to eliminate Kantan also emerge, with this chapter laying the groundwork for what’s to come in the ongoing conflict between the two clans.
